【答案】4.D5.B6.B7.C
【解析】
【分析】本文是篇说明文。
文章讲述了LinXu和他的团队为了鼓励人们杜绝浪费粮食,一起开发了一款名为“光盘”的手机应用软件以及开发这款软件的初衷、过程和影响。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。
文章第二段第一句“The"ClearPlate"mini-programhasbecomepopularamongyoungChinese.”表明这个小型光盘活动已经在中国年轻人中受到欢迎。
下面一句“Similarcampaignslikean"emptyplatechallenge"arealsoonthehorizoninmanyChineseuniversities.”提到的像“光盘挑战”这样的活动是类似的活动,而且这样的活动还有很多,此外在划线部分前面用了一个词“也”,可见这些活动很有可能在许多中国高校出现。
由此猜测划线部分意为“可能会出现”。
故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。
文章第三段“Theideapoppedupatadinnerin2017,whenLiufoundthattherestaurantownerwouldgivedinerswhopolishedofftheirfoodacardandoffersmallgiftsafteracertainnumberofcardshadbeencollected.”表明这个想法是在2017年突然出现的,当时刘发现餐馆老板会给吃光食物的就餐者一张卡片,而且当就餐者收集到了一定数量的卡片时餐馆会提供小礼物。
可见引起刘开发这个软件的原因就是受到餐馆老板的启发。
故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。
文章第四段讲述刘的团队研发这款软件时遇到的困难,其中“YetitwasquiteachallengefortheAIsystemtoassesswhethertheuploadedphotosshowedemptyplates.”告诉我们当时的一个挑战就是AI系统难以辨认上传的照片是否是光盘。
可见评估上传照片是非常的困难的。
故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。
本篇文章第一段通过具体的例子引出话题,即一款为了鼓励杜绝浪费粮食,名为“光盘”的手机app。
第二段讲述这款软件的影响,以及类似鼓励杜绝浪费粮食软件的出现。
第三段讲述刘季晨开发这个软件的初衷。
第四段讲述刘的团队在开发这款软件过程中出现的困难及为了鼓励人们节约粮食的最终目的。
